Sim Tourist evaluation
When I think of the TR40S, I think of innovation, efficiency and looking for well-defined boundaries. The TR40S was the first extrusion profile package introduced by Trak Racer that features 4040 (40mm x 40mm) extrusion profiles in the base of the simrig.
It features some interesting design concepts like the usage of 2 extrusion profile parts to create a longer one. Not only does this make the simrig more space efficient if needed, but it also makes it possible to create a more efficient packaging. It is one of the things that charmed me a lot about the TR40S.
With an exceptional pricing for this exceptional efficient design, it’s certainly at the top of it’s category.
